Sponsor Budget Map: (01) Salaries and Wages

This article covers the following:

Overview

You can use the Sponsor Budget Map page to understand how your SAGE Budget personnel data will initially flow to the RR Detailed Budget form.

In the (01) Salary and Wages section on the Sponsor Budget Map page, you will see one row for each person on your parent budget and any internal sub budgets.

Based on the Project Role you selected for each person in SAGE Budget, each person will map to either the RR Detailed Budget Section A. Senior/Key Person or Section B. Other Personnel.

The columns in this section of the Sponsor Budget Map are:

  • From SAGE Budget: displaying its Expense Type and Project Role
  • To RR Detailed Budget: displaying its Category and Project Role
  • Personnel Order: displaying the relative position in the Section A list for this person. Note: this column is unique to the 01 section.

Initially, you will see the personnel listed in the same Project Role order as on your SAGE Budget. Any personnel from internal sub budgets will display just after those on the parent budget, within each role.

You can adjust the default RR Detailed Budget Project Roles, except for the person who is the PD/PI. In some cases, you can change the default RR Detailed Budget Category (Section A or B).

Optionally, you can change the Personnel Order for those mapped to the RR Detailed Budget Section A by using the “Drag to Re-Order” feature (described below).

For personnel in Section B, in addition to the four default Project Roles, you can create customized ones.

Section A. Senior/Key Persons

When you first view the Sponsor Budget Map page, you will see the personnel listed in the same Project Role order as on your SAGE Budget. Any personnel from internal sub budgets will display just after those from the parent budget, within each role.

Mapping Rules

The following table defines the initial mapping rules and indicates whether the default value can be edited (changed).

SAGE Budget Project Role RR Detailed Budget Project Role Can the Role Be Edited?
Principal Investigator PD/PI; if there is also an Applicant PI, then this role defaults to Faculty Only if “Faculty” role
Application PI PD/PI No
Co-Investigator Co-Investigator No
Multiple PI PD/PI No
Key Personnel Depends on the 01 sub-object code selected; defined below Yes
Mentor Faculty Yes. Note: You can map this person to Section B, if appropriate
Faculty Faculty No

If you selected Key Personnel for someone’s project role on your SAGE Budget, their sub-object code will determine the default role on the RR Detailed Budget.

01 Sub-Object Codes Project Role on Detailed Budget
10-14 Instruction & Research Faculty Co-Investigator
20-24 Auxiliary Teaching Staff Other Professional
30-34 Graduate School Student Appointments – Teaching Graduate Student
40-44 Graduate School Student Appointments – Non-Teaching Graduate Student
50-54 Postdoctoral Research Trainee Post Doctoral Associates
60-64 Classified Staff Other Professional
70-74 Professional Staff Other Professional
80-87 Temporary Staff Other Professional
88-89 Hourly Undergraduate Students
90-94 Graduate Stipends Graduate Students

As needed, you can change the role. Project Role choices for the RR Detailed Budget form are:

  • Co-PD/PI
  • Faculty
  • Post Doctoral
  • Post Doctoral Associates
  • Post Doctoral Scholar
  • Other Professional
  • Graduate Students
  • Undergraduate Students
  • Technician
  • Consultant
  • Co-Investigator

Drag to Re-Order Feature

You can use this feature to adjust the order of the personnel mapped to Section A of the RR Detailed Budget. The Personnel Order column displays the text “RR Detailed Budget Position” followed by a number, indicating that person’s place in the order.

The Application PI (if present) will display on the first row.  If your budget does not include an Application PI, then the Principal Investigator will be listed first.

After the PD/PI or Application PI (if present), the default order of the personnel entries is by Category (Section A or B) and, within each category, by Project Role with Parent Budget and Sub-Budget personnel grouped together. For example:

  • Multiple PI (parent)
  • Multiple PI (sub budget)
  • Co-Investigator (parent)
  • Co-Investigator (sub-budget)
  • Key Personnel (parent)
  • Key Personnel (sub-budget)

You can use your mouse, or the keyboard, to choose a person’s row to re-order. Move the row up or down to update the position number for that person. Note that the form can list up to eight individuals. Any additional personnel are included in the Additional Senior Key Persons attachment, described below. The PD/PI must be one of the initial eight people listed.

Personnel mapped to Section B will have the note “Not applicable” in the Personnel Order column. You can drag them to a different position on the mapping page, but the next time you view the mapping page, the order will have returned to the Section A personnel followed by those mapped to Section B.

Any changes you make on your connected SAGE Budget or the Sponsor Budget Map page will be reflected on the RR Detailed Budget form when you view it. The ordering of Personnel on both the Sponsor Budget Map page and the RR Detailed Budget form will match the last ordered sequence you created and saved on the Sponsor Budget map page. Any newly entered Personnel, after the initial synchronization, will sort to the bottom of the Sponsor Budget Map page order by default.

Additional Senior Key Persons Attachment on RR Detailed Budget

Section A can display up to eight individuals on the RR Detailed Budget form. You must list any additional personnel in an attachment to the form. When you initially connect your SAGE Budget and Grant Runner application, SAGE will automatically generate and attach the PDF file listing any additional personnel. The file will be named to reflect the budget period. For example, the attachment for Period 3 of your budget will be named “Period_3_Personnel.pdf”. In addition, the system will calculate the Total Funds for Attached Persons value and display it.

Any time you add or remove Section A personnel from your SAGE Budget, or change their order on the Sponsor Budget Map page, the PDF attachment will automatically be recreated to reflect those changes, if necessary.

Section B. Other Personnel

Personnel that map to Section B are combined into the appropriate rows, with their data values totaled.

Mapping Rules

If you select one of these SAGE Budget Project Roles, the individual will be added to the corresponding role in Section B:

  • Post Doctoral Associates
  • Graduate Students
  • Undergraduate Students
  • Secretarial / Clerical

On the Sponsor Budget Map page, you can shift personnel with the Post Doctoral Associate role to the A: Senior/Key Persons section. You cannot edit the other project roles from the Sponsor Budget Map page. You would change them on your SAGE Budget.

If you select Other for someone’s project role on your SAGE Budget, that person’s sub-object code will determine the default role on the RR Detailed Budget.
